Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - MT: Challenger and Camaro face a case of bad timing

The other thing that these people are missing is that we are really only talking about three muscle/pony cars in this day and age. Camaro, Mustang, Challenger. Back in the 60s and early 70s there were tons.

You had Torinos, GTXs, Roadrunners, Novas, Chevelles, Chargers, Darts, Barrcudas/'Cuda, Impalas, Malibus, Skylarks, GTOs, Fairlanes, Camaros, TAs, Mustangs and the the list goes on.

Sure we have Chargers, Impalas, and Malibus today, but they don't quite live up to the muscle car heritage of their 60s and 70s counterparts.

Either way there isn't as big of proliferation of muscle cars these days, and I don't think they will get so destroyed by rising gas prices.
